The present invention relates to a stacker module for a folder-gluer machine, the stacker module being located downstream of a transfer module in a direction of transportation of the folder-gluer machine and configured to receive folding boxes from a conveyor in the transfer module. The stacker module comprises a loading surface configured to receive a plurality of folding boxes in order to form a stack and to descend vertically as the number of folding boxes on the loading surface increases, and a linearly movable ejector configured to eject the stack from the loading surface. A front abutment guide configured to move between an abutment and a clearing position to retain and release the stack.

Stacker module for a converting machine

The present invention relates to a transfer module () for a folder-gluer machine (), the transfer module comprising a lower conveyor () and an upper conveyor () adapted to receive a folding box () therebetween and to transport the folding box in a direction of transportation (D) towards a downstream-located loading surface () in a stacker module. The upper conveyor () of the transfer module extends further in the direction of transportation than the lower conveyor () and the lower conveyor comprises a first conveyor belt () and second conveyor belt (), each having an inlet end () and an outlet end (), and wherein the outlet ends are displaceable in the direction of transportation.

The present invention relates to a stacker module () for a folder-gluer machine (). The stacker module comprises a loading surface () configured to receive a plurality of folding boxes and to descend vertically as the number of folding boxes on the loading surface increases, and a linearly movable ejector () configured to be moved from a retracted position (RP) to an extended position (DP). The stacker further comprises an upper guide (), configured to move between a clearing position (CP) which is vertically distant from the upper surface of the stack, and a guiding position (GP), in which the upper guide is located closer to the upper surface of the stack, and wherein the upper guide is in the guiding position when the ejector is moved from the retracted position to the evacuation position.

A vibrating device () ensures the ordered rearrangement of folding boxes () in a receptacle () for an evacuation conveyor (), provided with driving elements () whose vertices define a horizontal transport plane (S). The device comprises:

According to the invention, the device comprises at least one flap spreading head (), the flap spreading head being vertically mobile for insertion thereof into a container () to be processed and including first and second flap spreading blades () mounted on pivots and an actuator (). The actuator is adapted to command rotation of the flap spreading blades that on rotating come into contact with flaps (R, R) and bring about spreading thereof by folds toward the exterior of the container.

A device for ejectinga flat objectduring the conveyance thereof along a conveying pathincludes an inlet conveyorand an outlet conveyorwhich are successively arranged one after the other along the conveying path. At least the downstream partof the inlet conveyoris orientably mounted for pivoting between a conveying position and an ejecting position and at least the upstream partof the outlet conveyoris orientably mounted for pivoting between a conveying position and an ejecting position.

Device for ejecting a flat object during conveying

A method for collecting samples in a machine for packaging flat objects, the packaging machine has a counting device and a separation device for forming a succession of batches, and an assembly device for forming a succession of packs. The method of collection includes stages of: forming a sample batch composed of a given number of flat objects with the help of the counting and separation devices, collecting the sample batch by the assembly device, and transferring the sample batch to a dedicated retrieval area with the assembly device.

An apparatus for conveying blanks or sheets that are arranged in piles includes a frame that has an input and an output and a pre-section that aligns the piles of blanks along a longitudinal conveying path. The pile of blanks is conveyed to a turn-over grip that swivels around the horizontal axis that extends transversely to the longitudinal conveying path. The turn-over grip includes two conveying units that are juxtaposed to one another with one of them being used to deliver the piles entering the turn-over grip and the other which is used to remove the piles after the turn-over grip has turned the pile upside down. A tightening mechanism presses one of the conveying units towards the other during the rotation of the turn-over grip. A pusher carriage is situated between the two conveying units and driven by a motor.
